Sidney Crosby got to talking about his recovery from last month's concussion. He said he hopes to come back this season, but can't say for sure whether he will.

"But am I sitting here packing it in? No. I hope I'm back and, geez, I hope I play this year. But that's the thing with these things. You don't know. There's no time frame. I'm expecting to play this year. I'm sure there's a thousand different things being said out there, and [him being out for the season] is one of them, but I expect to be playing."
